These photographs were taken in June 2006, during the Sixth Annual Bali NA Convention, held in the province of Seminyak in Bali, Indonesia.

This meeting is held on Monday nights at Padang Padang Beach, on the island of Bali, Indonesia. You have to walk through a dimly lit rock cave to even get to the beach. It is quite an adventure! It is attended by three or four regular members and many visitors from all over the world. The format is the daily reading from Just for Today and open sharing. As you can see, it is a candlelight meeting on the beach. Fishing boats dot the horizon, with their strings of bright lights. The weather is perfect! Ahh, I am ready to go again!

The Thursday night Bali meeting is held each week at a place called the Ruko, a sort of recovery-oriented clubhouse. It is a step-study meeting attended by ten to twenty-five people, depending on who is visiting. The night I attended, there were many others there who were also in Bali for the convention. On the right is a banner with the Twelve Steps of NA in Bahasa Indonesian.
